Cervical kyphosis can cause pain and disability, requiring surgical correction. This review covers anterior and posterior surgical techniques for treating cervical spine deformities, highlighting advancements in the field.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Spinal Surgery

Background:

  • Cervical deformity, especially kyphosis, is common in surgical practice.
  • While often asymptomatic, some cases lead to significant pain and disability.
  • Understanding pathophysiology and surgical techniques is crucial for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the pathophysiology of cervical deformity.
  • To outline the technical aspects of cervical spine deformity correction.
  • To provide an overview of current surgical techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Review of anterior surgical techniques: anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), anterior corpectomy and fusion (ACCF), and anterior osteotomy (ATO).
  • Review of posterior surgical techniques: laminectomy and fusion, posterior column osteotomy (PCO), and pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO).
